Definitions
- the present invention relates to wet shaving safety razors and more particularly to shaving razor systems that have a shaving razor cartridge mounted to an ergonomically formed handle for shaving a person's head.
- a cartridge or blade unit of a safety razor has at least one blade with a cutting edge which is moved across the surface of the skin being shaved by means of a handle to which the cartridge is attached.
- Some shaving razors are provided with a spring biased cartridge that pivots relative to the handle to follow the contours of the skin during shaving.
- the cartridge may be mounted detachably on the handle to enable the cartridge to be replaced by a fresh cartridge when the blade sharpness has diminished to an unsatisfactory level, or it may be attached permanently to the handle with the intention that the entire razor be discarded when the blade or blades have become dulled.
- Razor blade assemblies have been disclosed wherein cutting edge portions of the blade members are held between skin engaging surfaces which are generally referred to as the guard and cap of the razor blade assembly.
- the guard contacts the skin in front of the blade member(s) and the cap contacts the skin behind the blade member(s) during a shaving stroke.
- the cap and guard may aid in establishing the so-called “shaving geometry”, i.e., the parameters which determine the blade orientation and position relative to the skin during shaving, which in turn have a strong influence on the shaving performance and efficacy of the razor.
- the cap may comprise a water leachable shaving aid to reduce drag and improve comfort.
- the guard may be generally rigid, for example formed integrally with a frame or platform structure which provides a support for the blades. Guards may also comprise softer elastomeric materials to improve skin stretching.
- Head shaving has been steadily growing among men over the last several years. However, there are limited options available that specifically designed for head shaving. Certain razors that target head shaving consumers have handles with loops or rings to hold a user's hand or finger(s) during a shaving stroke. However, these designs restrict how the user can hold the handle of the shaving razor. Other shaving devices that were originally designed to shave the face, such as electric razors and safety razors also do not lend themselves well when shaving the head. The task of head shaving requires extreme care, patience, coordination and spatial awareness to avoid cutting the head.

The handle has an enlarged distal end portion. The handle has a maximum width of 28 mm to 35 mm at the enlarged distal end portion and tapers 10 degrees to 15 degrees along a first length that extends a terminal end of the handle to a second width of 20 mm to 25 mm toward the proximal end. The handle has a maximum thickness of 8 mm to 14 mm along the first length.
Description
- The present invention relates to wet shaving safety razors and more particularly to shaving razor systems that have a shaving razor cartridge mounted to an ergonomically formed handle for shaving a person's head.
- In general, a cartridge or blade unit of a safety razor has at least one blade with a cutting edge which is moved across the surface of the skin being shaved by means of a handle to which the cartridge is attached. Some shaving razors are provided with a spring biased cartridge that pivots relative to the handle to follow the contours of the skin during shaving. The cartridge may be mounted detachably on the handle to enable the cartridge to be replaced by a fresh cartridge when the blade sharpness has diminished to an unsatisfactory level, or it may be attached permanently to the handle with the intention that the entire razor be discarded when the blade or blades have become dulled.
- Razor blade assemblies have been disclosed wherein cutting edge portions of the blade members are held between skin engaging surfaces which are generally referred to as the guard and cap of the razor blade assembly. The guard contacts the skin in front of the blade member(s) and the cap contacts the skin behind the blade member(s) during a shaving stroke. The cap and guard may aid in establishing the so-called “shaving geometry”, i.e., the parameters which determine the blade orientation and position relative to the skin during shaving, which in turn have a strong influence on the shaving performance and efficacy of the razor. The cap may comprise a water leachable shaving aid to reduce drag and improve comfort. The guard may be generally rigid, for example formed integrally with a frame or platform structure which provides a support for the blades. Guards may also comprise softer elastomeric materials to improve skin stretching.
- Head shaving has been steadily growing among men over the last several years. However, there are limited options available that specifically designed for head shaving. Certain razors that target head shaving consumers have handles with loops or rings to hold a user's hand or finger(s) during a shaving stroke. However, these designs restrict how the user can hold the handle of the shaving razor. Other shaving devices that were originally designed to shave the face, such as electric razors and safety razors also do not lend themselves well when shaving the head. The task of head shaving requires extreme care, patience, coordination and spatial awareness to avoid cutting the head. Head shaving is more difficult than shaving one's face because in certain positions the shaving razor cannot be seen in the mirror by the user
- Thus, there is a need for a shaving razor system having an ergonomic handle to allow for proper control and manipulation for shaving one's face.
- In one aspect, the invention features, in general a shaving razor system with a cartridge having a proximal end and a distal end. A handle having a proximal end is connected to the distal end of the cartridge. The handle has an enlarged distal end portion. The handle has a maximum width of 28 mm to 31 mm at the enlarged distal end portion and
tapers 10 degrees to 15 degrees along a first length that extends a terminal end of the handle to a second width of 21 mm to 25 mm toward the proximal end. - In another aspect, the invention features, in general a shaving razor system with a handle having a proximal end portion configured to attach to a shaving razor cartridge. The handle has a terminal end. The handle has an enlarged distal end portion between the proximal end portion and the terminal end having maximum width of 28 mm to 31 mm measured within 5 mm of a terminal end. The handle has a second width of 21 mm to 25 mm between the maximum width and the proximal end portion and a first length of 50 mm to 70 mm between the terminal end and the second width.
- Other features and advantages of the present invention, as well as the invention itself, can be more fully understood from the following description of the various embodiments, when read together with the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a front view of a shaving razor system. -
FIG. 2 is a side view of the shaving razor system ofFIG. 1 . - When shaving your face with a razor handle is typically held at an angle between 30 degrees and parallel to the place of the surface of the skin being shaved, either in the form of downward strokes or upstrokes. This arrangement is generally comfortable and intuitive for the user and also provides good visibility when shaving in front of a mirror. The hand is kept a good distance from the shave surface, meaning that the reflected view of the area being shaved is not obscured by the shaver's own hand. This scenario has shaped the way razors have been designed and optimized for over one hundred years. However, the positional relationship between a shaving razor handle and the head may vary significantly depending on the location on the head that is being shaved.
- Referring to
FIG. 1 a front view of ashaving razor system 10 is shown. Ashaving razor cartridge 12 may be mounted to ahandle 14 that extends generally along a longitudinal axis A1. Theshaving razor cartridge 12 may have at least oneblade 16 for cutting hair. The at least oneblade 16 may be positioned between aproximal end 18 and adistal end 20 of the shavingrazor cartridge 12. Thehandle 14 may have aproximal end portion 22 an enlargeddistal end portion 24. Thedistal end 20 of thecartridge 12 may be mounted to theproximal end portion 22 of thehandle 14. Thehandle 14 may include aneck 26. The greatest width of thehandle 14 may be located at the enlargeddistal end portion 24. For example, handle 14 (the enlargeddistal end portion 24 of the handle) may have a maximum width “W1” of about 28 mm to about 35 mm. The width “W1” may be measured up to 5 mm from aterminal end 30 of thehandle 14. Thehandle 12 may taper about 10 degrees to 15 degrees along a first length “L1” that extends from theterminal end 30 to a second width “W2” toward theproximal end portion 22 that is less than W1. For example, W2 may be about 20 to about 25 mm. In certain embodiments, the first length “L1” may be about 50 mm to about 70 mm. Theneck 26 may have a width “W3” that is less than W2. For example, the width “W3” may be about 10 mm to about 15 mm. Theneck 26 may be positioned between W2 and theproximal end portion 22 of thehandle 14. Theneck 26 may provide the user an area of thehandle 14 to pinch between their thumb and index finger that is closer to thecartridge 12 for improved control. The taper of thehandle 12 may facilitate smooth transition from holding thehandle 12 between theneck 26 and thedistal end portion 26 to holding the handle at theneck 26. The dimensions W1, W2 and W3 may be taken from a top surface 40 (seeFIG. 2 ) of the handle 14 (i.e., opposite the side of theshaving razor system 10 that is facing the surface to be shaved). - In certain embodiments, the
shaving razor system 10 may have an overall length “L2” that extends from theterminal end 30 of thehandle 14 to theproximal end 18 of theshaving razor cartridge 12. The overall length “L2” may be about 100 mm to 130 mm, which is shorter than typical wet shaving razors to provide for more control when shaving the head. Shaving razors that are too long can be clumsy to maneuver and shaving razors that are too short may not provide sufficient surface area to hold and control the handle for longer shaving strokes. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , a side view of theshaving razor system 10 is illustrated. Theshaving razor handle 14 may have a maximum thickness “T1” between about 8 mm to about 14 mm along the length “L1” (FIG. 1 ). In certain embodiments, thehandle 14 may be manufactured from one or more metals. The weight of the handle can also impact the feel and comfort when held in a user's hand. In certain embodiments, thehandle 14 may have a weight of about 50 grams to about 100 grams and more preferably about 50 grams to about 60 grams. As the dimensions of thehandle 14 are important to how thehandle 14 performs in shaving one's head, thehandle 14 may need to be cored out in order to also obtain the desired weight. Accordingly, thehandle 14 may define anopening 32 that extends through a pair of lateral side surfaces 34 (FIG. 1 ) and 36 of thehandle 14. Theopening 32 may have a length “L3” of about 30 mm to about 60 mm and more preferably about 40 mm to about 50 mm. Theopening 32 may have a height “H1” of about 5 mm to about 15 mm and more preferably about 10 mm to about 15 mm. Thehandle 14 may have abottom surface 38 that is generally concave to facilitate the positioning of thehandle 14 at a proper angle relative to the head during a shaving stroke. Thehandle 14 may have atop surface 40, opposite thebottom surface 38 that is generally convex. The maximum thickness “T1” may extend from thetop surface 40 to thebottom surface 38. In certain embodiments, the maximum thickness of thehandle 14 along the length “L1” may be about 45% to about 60% of width “W1” and more preferably about 50% to about 55%. It is understood that the shavingrazor system 10 and handle 14 was designed for head shaving, the dimensions disclosed may provide similar advantages for shaving the face, underarms and other areas. - When consumers shave their head, they tend to take two times the number of strokes as when they shave their face. For example, the average number of strokes for shaving the head may be about 300, but may only be about 150 for shaving the face. During these high number of strokes, consumers adjust their grip more frequently than when they shave their face. These frequent adjustments may be facilitated by a thicker, wider, and shorter handle that can be maneuvered easily inside the palm in all different directions. In consumer tests, a majority of test panelists prefer the present handle design (compared to typical razor handle designs) as providing more control as they adjust grips to shave different areas of their head.
- The dimensions and values disclosed herein are not to be understood as being strictly limited to the exact numerical values recited. Instead, unless otherwise specified, each such dimension is intended to mean both the recited value and a functionally equivalent range surrounding that value. For example, a dimension disclosed as “40 mm” is intended to mean “about 40 mm.”
